What This Module is About
Wherever we go, we can see lines. In every object or things, lines are visible. It could
be in a writing pad, in clothes lines, pedestrian lanes, or even the designs of dress and
everyday outfit. There are different types of lines in geometry.
On this module, you will learn the two types of lines which are the perpendicular lines
and parallel lines cut by a transversal and its applications in solving real life problems.
Multiple Choice:
Directions: Read and answer the questions below. Select the letter of the best
answer from among the given choices.
5. Lines m and n are cut by transversal q. What value of x will make m || n, given that
∠1 and ∠4 are corresponding angles and m∠1 = 5x -11 and m∠4 = 3x + 5?
a. 6
b. 8
c. 10
Lesson 3 Parallelism and Perpendicularity
If two non-vertical lines are in the same plane has the same slope, they are said to be
parallel. Two parallel lines won’t ever intersect. If two non-vertical lines in the same plane
intersect at a right angle then they are said to be perpendicular. Transversal is a line that
intersects two or more lines. Angles are formed when parallel lines are cut by a transversal.

e. Can you describe what parallel lines are?
f. What can you say about the edges of the prism?
g. Are these lines perpendicular? Why?
h. Can you describe what perpendicular lines are?
Parallelism:
1. Two lines are parallel if and only if they are coplanar and they do not intersect.
(m || n)
2. A line that intersects two or more lines at different points is called a transversal.
a. The angles formed by the transversal with the two other lines are called:
• exterior angles (∠1, ∠2, ∠7 and ∠8)
• interior angles (∠3, ∠4, ∠5 and ∠6).
b. The pairs of angles formed by the transversal with the other two lines are called:
• corresponding angles (∠1 and ∠5, ∠2 and ∠6, ∠3 and ∠7, ∠4 and ∠8)
• alternate-interior angles (∠3 and ∠6, ∠4 and ∠5)
• alternate-exterior angles (∠1 and ∠8, ∠2 and ∠7)
• interior angles on the same side of the transversal (∠3 and ∠5, ∠4 and ∠6)
• exterior angles on the same side of the transversal (∠1 and ∠7, ∠2 and ∠8)
3. If two lines are cut by a transversal, then the two lines are parallel if:
a. corresponding angles are congruent.
b. alternate-interior angles are congruent.
c. alternate-exterior angles are congruent.
d. interior angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary.
e. exterior angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary.

What’s New
What will be the value of x that will make the equation equal?
1. 3x + 2 = 5x -8
2. 9x – 1 = 2x + 13
Solution:
a. For the lines to be parallel, the given angles must be congruent.
5x – 11 = 3x + 7 AICP Postulate
2x = 18 Solve for x
x=9
b. For the lines to be parallel, the given angles must be supplementary.
6x + 3 + 4x + 7 = 180 SSIS Theorem
10x + 10 = 180 Solve for x
10x = 170
x = 17

What’s New
Given any two distinct lines on a plane, the lines either intersect or are parallel. If two
lines intersect, then they form four angles. Consider the figures below to answer the questions
that follow.
Questions:

What Is It?
Perpendicularity
Two lines that intersect to form right angles are said to be perpendicular. This is not
limited to lines only. Segments and rays can also be perpendicular. A perpendicular bisector
of a segment is a line or a ray or another segment that is perpendicular to the segment and
intersects the segment at its midpoint. The distance between two parallel lines is the
perpendicular distance between one of the lines and any point on the other line.
The small rectangle drawn in the corner indicates “right angle”. Whereas, ⊥ is a symbol use
to indicate perpendicularity of lines as in XZ ⊥ PY.
To prove that two lines are perpendicular, you must show that one of the following theorems
is true:
1. If two lines are perpendicular to each other, then they form four right angles.
If m ⊥ n, then we can
conclude that ∠1, ∠2, ∠3
and ∠4 are right angles.

2. If the angles in a linear pair are congruent, then the lines containing their sides are
perpendicular.
3. If two angles are adjacent and complementary, the non-common sides are
perpendicular.
